I have suffered hundreds of rapes: It was difficult to make this decision. The dissemination of videos and photographs taken by the father of my children was something difficult and painful for me: but it gave us the opportunity to know the reality.

You didn’t leave me when I started having problems. You went to the gynecologist with me. I don’t understand how you can betray me like this, how can you bring those people into my room. This is an unfathomable betrayal. I thought I would end my days with a man. Today my life has become void. I always wanted to take you higher, towards the light. “You chose the lowest part of the human soul.”

I don’t speak out of hatred or anger. “I express my desire and determination to change this society.”
